Prior to stardate5718, CaptainGarth of Izar suffered an accident in which he was maimed and dying. He was transported to this planet by an unnamed Federationstarship. As he was being cured, the natives taught him the art of cellular metamorphosis. This medical procedure was used to restore the destroyed parts of a body. After he had regained his health, the captain offered them the galaxy. When they refused his offer, he declared them enemies of the Federation and condemned them to death. Before he could destroy them, the starship crew turned against him. (TOS: "Whom Gods Destroy")
